Apples to apples


We had so much fun with apples this week!  We wrote about apples using our new sight word "my".  The students wrote about the apple they brought to school!


Check out Josephine's awesome journal writing!


We also made a class graph of our apples!  We are learning to make and read graphs (which has most/least).


We had more multicolored apples and no yellow apples!

The students were introduced to narrative and informational books!  We discussed the differences between them and how to identify them.  Narrative books have characters and tell a story.  Informational books have facts and real information in them.  We used an informational book to learn about the parts of an apple.  We learned that labels are words that identify things.  We made our own apple art and labeled the parts of an apple!



Charlie's labeled apple!


Another fun art project was our apple and apple core art!  They made a whole apple and an "eaten" apple!


Rocky's apple art!

Thank you for helping your child items for our Letter/Mystery Bag!  They had such wonderful clues and great items!  Please continue to bring in an item with clues as a part of the students' weekly homework.  Here is our poster with examples of phonetic spelling!
